Bible Commentary for Acts 8:16

Wesley's Notes for Acts 8:16


8:14 And the apostles hearing that Samaria - The inhabitants of that country, had received the word of God - By faith, sent Peter and John - He that sends must be either superior, or at least equal, to him that is sent. It follows that the college of the apostles was equal if not superior to Peter.

8:15 The Holy Ghost - In his miraculous gifts? Or his sanctifying graces? Probably in both.

8:18 Simon offered them money - And hence the procuring any ministerial function, or ecclesiastical benefice by money, is termed Simony.
